Resource Mapping
Identify and connect the small business support resources in your community
Map your entrepreneurial community
SourceLink℠ is a recognized leader when it comes to designing compelling print and online visualizations of entrepreneurship support networks. From posters to foldable maps, SourceLink has collaborated with local leaders to co-create amazing visual representations of entrepreneurship communities that capture and celebrate local strengths of a community.
The SourceFinder™ poster is a unique grid of available resources that serve entrepreneurs and business owners. In partnership with JPMorgan Chase, SourceLink created the innovative entrepreneurship infographic that helps aspiring and existing business owners navigate the grid to find the right resource, along with key contact information to complete that valuable business connection.
The Resource Rail™ map makes resources at each stage of the entrepreneurial journey easy to see and navigate. It ensures innovators and entrepreneurs know where to turn for help starting and scaling their businesses.
Give entrepreneurs a guide to the business-building resources in your community.
Why visualize your network?
The entrepreneurs in your region will find the most value from the resources you provide if they can easily access them. Some people will appreciate an online search tool; others want to speak directly to a person; still others want to see everything available to them in one single place. The SourceFinder™ and Resource Rail™ tools each make an excellent hands-on companion piece when paired with The Resource Navigator® online search system.
"As a small city, we needed technical support to figure out how to reach entrepreneurs and innovators where they stood. SourceLink helped us organize our resources in a very defined and substantive way and use that data to create a tool that both entrepreneurs and resource partners are benefiting from.”
